Culture & Travel Tips
Best Time to Visit
June to August offers warm weather (20-25°C), white nights, and festival season. December brings Christmas markets and snow. May and September offer pleasant weather with fewer tourists. Winter (November-March) is cold and dark but magical.
Cultural Notes
Estonians value personal space and may seem reserved initially but are warm once you know them. Silence is comfortable here, not awkward. Singing is deeply cultural - the Song Festival draws 30,000 choir singers. Sauna culture is important.
Insider Tips
Estonia is one of the world's most digitally advanced countries - WiFi is everywhere and cards are preferred over cash. Download Bolt for taxis. Learn to say "tere" (hello) and "aitäh" (thank you). The old town is walkable; rent a car for countryside.
